We arrived back
on the Friday at 2am in Valdivia. The wind was blowing hard and it was raining
heavily, a bit of a shock to both of us since we had assumed the weather would
be starting to improve. Caramor was bouncing around, enough to make us feel
queasy.

Our bus tickets
to head north once more, this time all the way to Peru were booked for Sunday
evening so we had three days to get a lot done.

We even found
time to spend a fun evening with Raul and Jorge from the yacht club and caught
up with Mary-Ann and Larry from Traversay III and Marc our Belgian friend who
has settled here, owns a yacht and sadly, lost his wife Nadine a few weeks ago.
